Matthew McConaughey Makes A Huge Announcement About His Political Plans
In a three-minute-long video, McConaughey talked about the values of service and responsibility and problems in local and national politics.
“Over the past two years, I’ve been working on the answer to the question of how I can be most useful in this life, going forward. Useful to myself, useful to my family, and to the most amount of people,” McConaughey, 52, shared.
“As a simple kid born in the little town of Uvalde, Texas, it never occurred to me that I would one day be considered for political leadership. It’s a humbling and inspiring path to ponder. It is also a path that I’m choosing not to take at this moment,” McConaughey said.
The actor said he would “continue to work and invest the bounty I have by supporting entrepreneurs, businesses and foundations that I believe are leaders, establishments that I believe are creating pathways for people to succeed in life, organizations that have a mission to serve and build trust while also generating prosperity. That’s the American dream,” he added.
The actor has recently faced criticism for comments he made about COVID-19 vaccine requirements for children, saying earlier this month that he “couldn’t mandate having to vaccinate the younger kids.”
